47287 2002-05-05 14:18:00 I've recently purchased a brand new system, but am having extreme trouble getting it to accept the printer. I've repeatedly tried attaching it to the printer port, but on booting the screen freezes half-way through the boot process.

I'm running Win98se, and it's a P4 system.

Any ideas on what I can do to get it to work?

Retailer not interested in solving any of the problems that came with computer. This is just one of them.

Was the printer bought with the system? If so, has it ever worked? If not, take the whole lot back to the dealer and get them to fix it, or demand a refund... mention such words as Consumer Guarantees Act or Fair Trading Act etc. and hopefully you'll get a response. It should be under warranty, so they have to fix it.

Unfortunately I didn't buy my printer with new computer so I guess I can't expect the dealer to help me get it sorted.
